Course Description

In this course, students will learn the history of Britain by focusing on how various political, economic, and other developments impacted one place, the city of York. The course puts time and space into tension with one another by asking students to investigate an extremely long sweep of the history of Britain—from the Roman Empire to the present, a span of 2,000 years—via a focus on one very particular locality, the city of York. Students will work in groups (both small sub-groups and a single large group) to produce an accessible, reliable website on the histories of Britain and of York from the first to the twenty-first century. A waitlist has been started for this course, please contact the instructor to be added.
